Is there a sane way to make seaside config edits (like custom session) programatically?

I am following the cincom seaside tutorial at

http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/userblogs/cincom/blogView?content=seaside_tutorial1

There are a couple of points in the tutorial where you do some manual
tweaks to the seaside config at localhost:7777/cofngif. There's a
tweak for a custom session, a tweak for including some javascript
libraries, and maybe a few other minor things. I would like to do
these tweaks programmatically rather than by hand edits. If this is
"not a good thing" to want, please tell me I'm barking up the wrong
tree, and I'll keep doing the hand edits thing. But if doing this more
automatedly is reasonable, I would love to know how.

Instructions for the manual way, from tutorial documentation, which
includes copious screenshots of the manual tweaks...

custom session config:

custom javascript library config:

Any advice is appreciated.

Regards,

Thomas.

All the things you do through the web interface can be done programmatically.

In the seaside application root class of StoryBoard, SBMain, we have:

SBMain>updateRoot: anHtmlRoot
super updateRoot: anHtmlRoot.
anHtmlRoot title: 'StoryBoard'.
anHtmlRoot link
type: 'text/css';
beStylesheet;
addAll;
url: SBFileLibrary / 'main.css';
yourself

SBMain>>initialize
"Registers this applicaton as webpage
SBMain initialize.
"
super initialize.
(WAAdmin register: self asApplicationAt: 'story')
preferenceAt: #sessionClass
put: SBPublicSession;
addLibrary: JQDeploymentLibrary;
addLibrary: JQUiDeploymentLibrary;
yourself

updateRoot is instance side, initialize is class side.
